Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
v1.1a of 2014/09/22
Added option to use the l3bigint macros for the arithmetic
operations.
Added commands numexprUsesxint, numexprUsesbigintcalc,
numexprUsesliiibigint to be able to switch engines midway
in a document ( but why would one be not content to use xint
only ? ) ;-)

Version number: 1.1

Summary description: Extends eTeX’s
umexpr...
elax construct to big
integers.
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
v1.1 of 2014/09/21
hebnumexpr...
elax is analogous to he
umexpr...
elax but
for arbitrarily big integers. Example:
hebnumexpr 30*(21-43*(512-67*(6133-812*2897)))
elax
which outputs -202785405180.
Option allowpower furthermore enables ^ for power operations.
By default, bnumexpr uses the arithmetic macros from xint (with /
doing rounded division for compatibility with
umexpr). To reduce
overhead, perhaps at some point these could get extracted from
xint.sty/xinttools.sty and moved to a smaller core package.
Option bigintcalc tells bnumexpr to load package bigintcalc rather
than package xint (however / does then truncated division).
With option custom, neither xint nor bigintcalc are loaded and it
is up to the user to provide suitable definitions for expandable
macros numexprAdd, numexprSub, numexprMul, numexprDiv and,
in case of option allowpower, also numexprPow.
The numexpr parser is a scaled down version of xintiiexpr from
xintexpr.sty (which loads the whole chain xintfrac/xint/xinttools)
Currently it is provided only as a LaTeX2e package.

Summary description: Functionality from IEEEtran for use with other classes
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I am pleased to announce the release of the v1.4 update to the
IEEEtrantools LaTeX package.
IEEEtrantools.sty provides several commands from IEEEtran.cls,
including IEEEPARstart and the IEEEeqnarray family so that
they may be used under other class files.
Version 1.4 is based on version 1.8a of IEEEtran.cls. V1.4 is
mainly a service release with internal code improvements for
command argument processing and support for future features.
See the changelog.txt file for the full history of changes.
Enjoy!

getmap
package.
Version number: 1.7
License type: lppl
Summary description: Download OpenStreetMap maps for use in documents.
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The goal of this package is the simplest possible provision of
map images (OpenStreetMap, Google Maps and Google Street View
are supported). In the simplest case, the specification of an
address is sufficient. The package loads the map using the
write18 feature, which you must activate to use this package.
The image will be downloaded by an external Lua script. You can
use this script also from the command line.
License: LPPL
Changes in v1.7:
- added kml2epl and kml2gps modes to getmapdl.lua
Google's *new* version of 'My Maps' allows the definition of
markers, routes and arbitrary lines on different layers and
export of all of these into kml files.
getmapdl -m kml2epl -K file.kml
will parse the file and output the geographical coordinates of
defined places and the routes and lines as encoded polylines
- added multi track support for gpx2epl and gpx2gps modes;
revised gps2epl mode
- updated documentation
